DWP. Digital with Purpose.

We are looking for Product Managers to join our data and analytics team. Our team uses data and analytics to help prevent fraud and error at DWP.

In DWP Digital our teams use fresh ideas and leading-edge tech to build and maintain digital solutions that will be used by nearly every person in the UK, every day and at key moments in their lives.

DWP is the UK's largest government department. We help people into work and make payments worth over £195bn a year to support and empower millions of people.

The scale of what we do is extraordinary, the problems we have to solve are rich and complex, and our purpose is unique. We'd love you to join us.

What skills, knowledge and experience will you need?

• Experience of influencing stakeholders in difficult circumstances and diffusing challenging situations
• You know how to put users first as part of a commitment to user-centred design and know how to achieve this amongst competing priorities including achieving value for the business
• Ability to identify if a piece of work is complex or has risk attached to it, and what level of complexity or risk there is
• Experience of making a decision under pressure or with little information
• Have experience of mentoring and coaching product people and teams to deliver highly quality products and services
• Experience of leading data and/or technical products, setting the direction of travel, championing the product and setting the team up to succeed.

You and your role

You will primarily sit in our Data and Analytics area of DWP Digital working on data platforms and products which allow our data scientists to detect any fraud and error at the very earliest.

You will ideally have experience of working in a data context, with data scientists, data engineers or other data professionals, and be able to speak their language.

While you'll work with key stakeholders, you will be accountable for all the product decisions made within your portfolio and actively own the related roadmaps.

Location: You'll join us in one of our brilliant digital hubs in Birmingham, Blackpool, Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle or Sheffield, whichever is most convenient for you.

Hybrid Working: We work a hybrid model - you'll spend some time working at home and sometime collaborating face to face in a hub.

Pay: We offer pay of up to £77,740.

Pension: You'll get a brilliant civil service pension with employer contributions worth 28.97%, worth up to £21,050 per year.

Holidays: A generous leave package starting at 26 days and rising to 31 days over time.

You can also take up to 3 extra days off a month on flexi-time. You'll also get all the usual public holidays.

We have a broad benefits package built around your work-life balance which includes:

• An award-winning environment and culture: Employer of the Year 2023 (Women In IT Awards), Founders Award for Outstanding Digital Leadership 2023 (Digital 100)
• Flexible working including flexible hours and flex-friendly policies
• Time off volunteering and charitable giving
• Bring your authentic self to work with 'I Can Be Me in DWP'
• Discounts and savings on shopping, fun days out and more

• Sports and social activities
• Professional development, coaching, mentoring and career progression opportunities.
